I heard Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.world among others, but recently I have been seeing content from beehaw communities and users. Did they re-federate? If so, why? And if not, why am seeing updates from their servers again?

Yea it doesn't seem to be as big a deal as I feared. A week ago it seemed like everyone is trying to dig in within their little islands.

Still, I admit that Beehaw annoys me. Why even choose a platform where the whole point is federation and interoperability, when they just want a corner for themselves? I'd say forums are better for that. As it is it just confuses everybody, especially people who don't know that other instances can't see their comments.

Ed: on the other hand I'm all for preemptively defederating from whatever Facebook cooks up so I'm not as open either I guess
